5 Seconds of Summer Album is Too Hot for “Frozen” on Sales Chart

With sales of 259,000, 5 Seconds of Summer exacts revenge on the "Frozen" soundtrack. It debuts at #1 on the BB200.

5 Seconds of Summer finally got its revenge on the enduring “Frozen” soundtrack.

This spring, the dominant soundtrack spoiled what seemed like a certain #1 debut for 5SOS’ “She Looks so Perfect” EP. That release, which opened at #2 on the Billboard 200, was never able to reach the chart’s apex.

Last week, the band’s debut full-length moved at an electric sales pace. And, per Billboard’s Wednesday update, it has officially put the “Frozen” soundtrack in its place.

The self-titled 5 Seconds of Summer release debuts at #1 on the Billboard 200 with sales of 259,000. The “Frozen” soundtrack, which is impressively still a Top 5 album, settles for #2 with weekly sales of 37,000.

According to Billboard, last week marked the soundtrack’s thirty first consecutive week in the Top 5.
